I am looking at a set of 7000+ records-- 514th rec is a record that contains transliteration for Amharic (Ethiopian) on corporate body. MARC::Record does not have a map to it. See attached screen shot. utf8 "\xAE" does not map to Unicode at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6/i386-linux-thread-multi/Encode.pm line 166. Have you come across something like this? How did you get around it?! Thanks for your help!
Looking at the code map for MARC8, it seems this record is in fact MARC8 encoded. We need to confirm what code of yours is using Perl's Encode module, but my guess is that it's a very old MARC::Charset module. Can you show us a simplified example script that exhibits this behavior? TIA -- Mike Rylander [EMAIL PROTECTED] GPLS -- PINES Development Database Developer http://open-ils.org
